Miscellaneous.
WHAT AlLS THE NATION !?
The Average Length of Life De-
creasing-Not Pestilence-
Not Famine-AH our
own Fault.

MODERN COOKING AND MODERN
LIVING have brought it on. 1t
comes upon us unawares. The
patients have pains about the
chest and sides, and sometimes
in the back. They feel dull and
sleepy; the mouth has a bad
taste, especially in the morning.
A sort of sticky slime collects
about the teeth. The appetite is
poor. There is a feeling like a
heavy load on the stomach ;
sometimes a faint, all-gone sensa-
ton at the pit Of the stomach
which food does not satisfy. The
eyes are sunken, the hands and
feet become cold and feel clam
my. After a while a cough sets
in, at first dry, but after a few
months it is attended with a
greenish colored expectoration.
The patient feels tired all the
while, and sleep does not seem
to afford any rest. After a time
he becomes nervous, irritable
and gloomy, and has evil fore
bodings. There is a giddiness, a
sort of whirling sensation in the
head when rising up suddenly.
The bowels become costive; the
skin is dry and hot at times ;
the blood becomes thick and
stagnant the whites Of the eyes
become tinged with yellow the
kidney secretions become scanty
and high colored, depositing a
sediment after standing. There
is frequently splitting up of the
food, sometimes with a sour taste
and sometimes with a sweetish
taste this is frequently attend
ed with palpitation Of the heart
and Asthmatic symptoms F; the
vision becomes impaired, with
spots before the eyes; there is a
feeling of great prostration and
weakness. All Of these symp-
toms are in turn present. 1t is
thought that nearly one-half Of
our population has this disease in
some of its varied forms. Shak-
er Extract of Roots (SeigePs
Syrup changes the ferments of
the Digestive organs so as to con-
vert the food we eat into a form
that will give nourishment to the
feeble body, and good health is
the consequence. The effect of
this remedy is simply marvellous.
Millions upon millions of bottles
have been sold in this country,
and the testimonials in favor of
its curative powers are over
whelming. Hundreds of social
ed diseases under various names
are the rusult Of indigestion, and
when this one trouble is remov-
ed the other diseases vanish, for
they are but symptoms of the
real malady.
Testimonials from thousands
of people speaking highly of its
curative properties prove this
beyond a doubt. Sold by drug
gists.

CLUYERIUs.

Cluyerius was a changed man
Yesterday. lie was no longer
sprightly CHEEKY, but was tact
turn and thoughtful. His manner
to visitors is always polite, but he
had no hcartt to talk with those who
came TO see him.
Friday morning he was. for man
in his situation, III good spirits: but
before the evening WAS far alvan.
ced great melancholy settled on
him the result, as II, is believed but
not known, of his interviews with
Mr.. Bcv. Crump and Hon. John S.
Wise. If the latter ever mcditatcd
taking the case to the United States
Court. he must have seen that it
would be Il fruitlcss undertaking,
and so informed the condemned
AS for Mr.. Crump, it must be that
he felt 1t his duty to say that every
possible resource had been tried
and exhausted.
Anyhow, Friday evening after
the visitors were ill gone the prlS
oncr began to grow moody. and is
now showing lie crushing effect OF
the removal of all earthly hopes
and props. Lie is not the man to
advertise 10y his appearance what
is passing in his mind or to give
away to emotion; but the news he
has recently heard is news that no
mortal man in good health can hear
without experiencing crushing
sensation upon him.
VISITORS.
Mr.. Dunn, who is the day watch
man i'll Cluvcrius's room, and of
whom the prisoner is very fond,
was unwcll yesterday and another
man was filling his place.
Mrs. TunSiall and DR.. Hatcher
were among the prisoners visitors
yesterday. The latter WAS with him
,n hour or more, mncl of which
time was spent in prayer.

their son Il last farewell.

from cool, shop, but his appetite
Is now comparatively feeble. He
has more pluck tilan nine hundred

but he would be more than
mortal if he could relish food just
